HIDs: Fog light housings Question
Just last week I bought HID's for my headlights and fog lights. I replaced the bulbs in the headlights with no problem and went to the shop to put in my fog lights.
Apparently, my fog light housings are broken so we couldn't mount the stuff for my fog lights.
Do you guys know where I can order fog light housings (without going to mb dealer first) and approximately how much it costs?

jessica90, u need to change the h6w to Blue like mine and i will post a pic this week for ya.
Anyway for the fog housing, is it melted??? cuz i had the same prob and only the dealer has the replacement for it and it takes one week to get it and its special ordered...
Gonna look for it and see if i still have the part Number, it took em 3 hours to figure out the right number for it.
